We enjoyed a long 4 day weekend in Santa Barbara … with this property adding to the experience. Lovely home located near the beach, restaurants and shopping. Location is perfect for those who enjoy walking. Home was well supplied … we canceled two dinner reservations because we enjoyed being in the home so much that we did not want to leave. It is clean, quiet, well appointed and comfortable. And we really appreciate that we were able to bring our miniature schnauzer. We will return again later this year.

Great location!!! We rented bikes for a few days and biked everywhere (we were able to store them in the garage) The house was perfect for my family while we were in Santa Barbara for a wedding. It had everything we needed and then some. The grounds were awesome- even a lemon tree!

Beautiful Home

Excellent property. Only downside is it is an older house and a door got stuck open on the first day that could not be fixed. This apparently has been an issue in the past. They remedied the situation with a privacy curtain. Communication was great.

Review

Location and home were great. We had an issue that the place wasn’t clean when we arrived. After some back and forth with the management company, cleaning people arrived and worked quickly. There was some sort of mixup between the company and the owners. We were only mildly inconvenienced but we are lucky we arrived right at checkin time and not later so we could get it resolved by the early evening.

We loved our long weekend stay at Juniper Cottage. The place itself is very well maintained and has everything and more for an extended visit. And, it’s so quiet! Although it is merely steps to the beach, the neighborhood is residential and family friendly. We will definitely be back!

The home's location is fantastic! It's near the beach, pier, restaurants and shopping mall. We didn't have to drive too far for other family activities in the area. The neighborhood where the house is located is noticeably quiet and calm. We were so relaxed and enjoyed our weekend vacation! The house is fantastic, the management very attentive and helpful. We will definitely stay at this home when traveling to Santa Barbra on our next vacation.

Family Spring Break in Santa Barbara

Our multi-generation family loved staying in this house in the West Beach area. It was so close to the beach, marina, wharf and State Street. We loved walking to Jeannine's for breakfast and Brophy Brothers for dinner. The house provided comfortable beds and indoor living space along with front yard and back yard outdoor living space. Both the indoor and outdoor tables provided us with enough room for our family to dine and play games. It was too cool for us to spend very much time on the beach but the beach gear was at the house if we would have needed it. We had a great time staying at this home.
